At Abbey Gates, our goal is to ensure that all children become successful readers. We believe that reading is a key life skill and is essential for overall academic success. We understand how complex this process is for children and are fully aware of the need to provide them with a secure foundation to develop these skills, whilst promoting a love and enjoyment of  reading.

In year 6, we encourage children to read at least 3 times a week at home - this could be your school reading book, one of your favourite books from home, a comic or newspaper or something online - read whatever it is you love to read and don't forget to record it in your reading diary!
